Although I'm not certain what the original question is, I do think it's 
possible to learn 3D stuff without all that RAM. Sure you need more than 
8 Megs but really 64?  Just render your images at a low resolution, say 
160 x 120...no it's not professional quality but you'll get an idea of 
where you're going...
